Trying to Conceive? The Mindset, Supplements & Support That Actually Helped (Part 2)


Listen Later

Trying to conceive can feel like an emotional rollercoaster—and no one talks about it enough. In this episode of The Wellness Effect, we’re continuing Kira’s fertility journey, breaking down the mindset, supplements, and support that helped her conceive after loss.

In this deeply vulnerable and powerful episode, Kira shares more details about the physical, emotional, and spiritual layers of her fertility journey—from grieving multiple losses to navigating early pregnancy with cautious hope. She gets real about the supplements that helped, the importance of mineral support, how parasites may have played a role, and the healing power of talking to other women.

Lacey also shares the start of her own conception journey—balancing uncertainty with curiosity and shifting mindset after years of not wanting kids.

This episode is a beautiful reminder that everyone’s timeline and experience is different—and there’s no perfect way to do this.

 

 

Key Takeaways:

  1. Supplements aren’t everything—but they helped. Kira shares the specific fertility supplements that supported her, including CoQ10, NAC, and minerals, but reminds listeners they’re only one piece of the puzzle.
  2. Your partner’s health matters, too. Fertility isn’t just a “female issue”—it’s also important to include male partners in testing, supplements, and mindset.
  3. Mindset and language shape your journey. Calling it a “fertility journey” vs. “infertility journey” may sound small—but how you speak about your body and path matters.
  4. You don’t have to do this alone. Community, vulnerability, and connecting with other women on the same journey can be incredibly healing.
  5. Conventional answers aren’t always the full picture. Question dismissive medical advice and start advocating for yourself.
  6. It’s okay if your story is messy. This journey isn’t linear—grief, fear, hope, and joy can all coexist, and you deserve space for all of it.
